Pumpkin Carving and Sweet Pics


We were talking tonight about how fortunate we are to live in an age with such incredible technology. It's not always easy living 6 hours away from our grandchildren and not being there in person to see Delilah's first spoonful of real food being tasted or to hear about Will's first preschool field trip to the apple farm.

Thank goodness for iPhones that can take pictures and send them almost instantly. And how great are the videos they record (also able to be sent within seconds.) Then there is Skype -- the ability to see the kids via webcams in real-time.

Tonight was pumpkin carving time at Josh and Jessica's. Jess sent us a couple of cute videos of Will as they started to get the pumpkin ready. What a thrill to be a part of this experience. I'm posting those videos here and a picture of the final product ... and then I'm also going to post a few pics we've received over the past week or so ... we are so thankful for the opportunity to stay connected!
